AUTISM: IS IT ALL IN THE HEAD?

Abstract:The article focuses on the role of autism in reflecting the causes and cures for chronic disease. Contrary to the generally accepted belief, that regarded autism as a genetically determined fixed brain-based disorder, medical discoveries have proven autism as a reversible systemic disorder that is influenced by genetics and that affects the brain. A study of 148 autistic children has found that they are prone to potential digestive problems, allergy and gut inflammation caused by certain foods.
